    -$45

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Sales = $690

    EBIT = $300

    Depreciation = $40

    Tax rate = 40%

    Fixed assets increased by $265.

    Firm's free cash flow:

    = Earnings after tax + Depreciation - Capital Expenditure

    = [EBIT * (1 - Tax rate) ] + $40 - $265

    = [$300 * (1 - 0.40) ] + $40 - $265

    = $180 + $40 - $265

    = - $45

    Therefore, the firm's free cash flow - $45.
